Dwarf Rasbora (Boraras Maculatus) FNM

The Dwarf Rasbora (Boraras Maculatus) are native to the tropical forest swamps and water ways found in many of the jungles of Southeast Asia. They come from black water streams and pools that are tinted dark brown from the tannis released from decaying organic matter. The substrate of these streams is made up of a sandy bottom with a thick cover of leaves, branches and twigs that form an intricate maze of hiding spots for numerous small fish species that thrive there. The Dwarf Rasbora thrives in this dimly lit and densely vegetated environment. They use this dense vegetation to both hide from larger predatory species of fish; as well as, to hunt for small crustaceans, insects, worms and zooplankton on which to feed. They have adapted to this dimly lit, very soft and acidic water and will do best in the home aquarium if housed in a similarly designed aquarium habitat.
